Little Bird

I don't know why, but while writing this I thought of Alex.

Fly free into the sky my little dove
Let your white color shine of love.

Don't hold back,
Don't be afraid
But be prepared,
Prepared for everything.

Many storms will dampen the days,
Keeping you grounded in so many ways.
Don't worry,
The sun will soon shine again.

Then you, little bird,
You may fly on
To the better days ahead
And the clearer skies to come.

Bigger birds will look down upon you
Then you know not what to do.
You just sit there pearched on the highest branch.

And you refuse to fly down.
Afraid of what might happen.
Little birdie, do not worry,
You have a flock of your kind watching after you.

They too will sit up on the same branch as you
For they will never fly away.
Always there to stay.

Until that day you again want to fly.
They too will fly
Fly right by your side.

So little birdie,
Chip up!
The sun is just beginning to shine!
